Do you have a stick-shift street car? Would you like to upgrade your transmission to a Tremec Magnum XL? Then you don’t want to miss the Tremec Stick Shift Shootout, which will be held as part of the 20th Annual NMRA Nitto Spring Break Shootout—March 6-9, 2014 in Bradenton, Florida.

Last year, the NMRA, Tremec, and MM&FF teamed up to bring you the Stick Shift Shootut. This special event took place alongside Tremec True Street, and stick-only TS competitors were able to qualify. The quickest two faced each other head to head in a best-of-three format. The winner, Jeff Smith, took home a Tremec Magnum six-speed transmission.

As one of the largest Tremec True Street events on the NMRA tour, the Spring Break Shootout is also the season opener for the all-Ford series. According to the NMRA:

“The staging lanes at Bradenton Motorsports Park will be bursting at the seams as over 100 entrants will battle for top True Street honors, with the fastest 8 stick cars receiving a special shootout plaque to recognize their prowess. From there things will heat up as the quickest two manual-equipped vehicles will have an all-out slugfest with a ‘winner takes all’ best 2-out-of-3 heads-up finale! The winner will go home with a brand new Tremec Magnum XL 6-speed transmission system valued at $3,500! The system fits all S197 Mustangs, easily handles up to 700 lb-ft of torque, and even comes with an SFI-certified bellhousing!”

Team MM&FF will be on hand for the festivities, so we’ll see you there!
